Draft guru's

[nflman2033]

DeVier Posey, I am seeing mocked having him mid draft or even later, one website has him as #35 best WR, another doesn't list him in top 15 seniors.

Unless I am dead wrong he was a late round one guy if he left early last year.

I can't believe his stock would drop that much, he wasn't a career troublemaker, so his suspension while hurts, shouldn't have dropped him from top 5 WR to #35
.
I have to say if he goes past 2nd round its a huge steal.

Well he was suspended and that's gonna keep a lot of teams from drafting him. His AVG yards per reception in 09 and 10 are remarkable.

I could see how you think he'd be a steal but he is a trouble maker so the NFL scouts are gonna penalize him for that.

I've seen guys with comparable skills and more of a history of problems off field rank better than 35

Doesn't he have a history of the dropsies?

That being said he's a guy I'd be really happy with the Bears taking a look at.

Also, I think what hurts him a bit this year is the WR class in 2012 for the draft is going tobe crazy strong.

I've seen worse, and by OSU receivers who were 1st and 2nd rounders

That maybe, but 35th

In my opinion he is a better NFL prospect than Robiskie. That judgement is kinda hazy because he has been shit in the NFL.

Well in college I would have put Robiske ahead of Hartline, but that isn't the case. I also put Gonzales ahead of Ginn, but gonzo couldn't stay healthy. I would put Posey ahead of all WR from OSU since 2000 other than Jenkins, and Holmes.

As a college player would you put Posey ahead of Gonzo?

I always like Holmes in college. Not as a true #2 but I always viewed him as a #2 in the Reggie Wayne mold.

Posey dropping to #35 WR is odd.

Where did that info come from?

Yes, I would, gonzo had more help with better QB, and better wr on other side

Some other sites still have him as a 2nd or 3rd rounder

Why you using that site?

Anyone with ESPN Insider know what his grade is?

Posey is a big-time playmaker, but he does have very suspect hands. Lots of drops over the years on easy passes (Most notably the dropped game winning TD against Iowa last year). You get the ball in his hands though, and watch out, he just makes plays. He's excellent at getting seperation, and he's very good blocking in the ground game.

The character issues are a bit overblown IMO. If it were legal issues, then yes I would agree, but these were NCAA issues over him selling his own stuff to pay for rent and tattoos, and getting paid too much by his employer for hours worked at a job.

He's also been referenced as being the leader of the team this year (Him and Boom), despite the fact that he's only been able to play in 2 games, and is said to be a guy that the rest of the team looks up to for his leadership ability and his work ethic.

Posey is absolutely a better NFL prospect than Robo IMO.

If I had to rank the receivers to come out of tOSU in the past decade in terms of being NFL prospects...

1. Michael Jenkins
2. Santonio Holmes
3. DeVier Posey
4. Ted Ginn
5. Anthony Gonzalez
6. Brian Robiskie
7. Brian Hartline
8. Dane Sanzenbacher
9. Roy Hall
